is this focus edition?

I see this: https://a.co/d/a0qiHdy

is this a better one for gmat focus?

2023 -2024
2024 - 2025
2025 - 2026

Are all focus edition, which basically means they deleted a number of questions but added very few new ones.

There’s a very little difference between 2023–20 24 and 2024–2025editions. What about a total of 100 questions of difference but there’s a new 2025–2026 book coming out sometime in May and maybe it will have a few more new questions but I wouldn’t wait for it and I wouldn’t hunt for it. https://a.co/d/dBswjBF

PS. GMAT Focus was a temporary name. Last summer, GMA has removed the focus designation permits materials which clearly was not the best move, so here I am providing support for their mess 😂

Hey ! I am about to take my first attempt at the GMAT. Been studying like a demon for the past 6 months... My last practice test I got a 665, which said was ~94th percentile of gMAT takers. That got me really excited, but nervous and sprouted some questions. 1) how accurate are the official GMAT practice tests? 2) How aware & unbiased are schools of the "new" GMAT scoring system? Les say on the real thing, I did perform that well (fingers crossed) obviously that’s a strong score, but I’m admittedly nervous that will be compared to an "OG" gmat score of 700 and deemed worse, despite actually being an improvement.

Hi. Congratulations on getting to this point! This is awesome!

I don’t think you need to worry about any of these questions at the moment. These will not help you to score better and I don’t think I knew anyone who right before a big event decided to have some doubts so be focused on your test. Score as high as you can and when you got your score, then we will get into the most minute details.

Make sure that you follow exactly the same process and you don’t try to change anything on the test day. Make a plan for how you will handle things and what you will do in case you get stuck on a question because most probably will, but all of these things are OK because everyone gets stuck on the question. The key is that successful test takers make up plan ahead of time how they will handle it.

Then, focus one question at a time without worrying about how your previous sexual went how your current section is blowing or you know what school you will be applying to or how the scores are perceived and so. These things will not help you on the test 😇

I am sorry for a very unsatisfying reply but your mind should be somewhere else at the moment. Focus on the test 💪
Good luck!

Hi there! I recently took my first official test and had a disappointing result. After studying hard I was able to get my first mock up from a 495 to a 665 on official mock #6. Then on the official test I scored a 595. I got the first question wrong on quant and it threw off my quant (my weakest section) and the rest of my test. I am scheduled to take another exam in 2 weeks and just would like any advice on how to preform at my best as I know I am capable of more. I have refined my study habits and error log effectively now going over errors. Also any tips on how to make improvements in quant. I consistently score 80 or below on quant while getting 85s on DI and V.

Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

Hello everyone ! Here is today’s (April 9) DI Butler Question: in-a-regional-darts-challenge-the-board-is-divided-into-six-color-zon-443495.html

Critical Reasoning Butler: April 2025
April 10	CR 1	CR 2

CR 1

Dolphins can swim at high speeds and achieve high acceleration in the water. In 1936, Sir James Gray calculated the force dolphins should be able to exert based on their physiology. He concluded that the propulsive force they were able to exert was not enough to explain how fast they swim and accelerate. In the 2000s, experimenters used special computer-enhanced measurements of the water in which dolphins were swimming. Through mathematical modeling, they were able to measure the force dolphins exert with their tails. As it turns out, dolphins exert considerably more force with their tails than Sir James Gray or anybody else ever expected. Therefore, the force exerted by their tails easily explains how fast they swim and accelerate.

In the argument, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

(A) This first is a piece of evidence supporting the main conclusion; the second is the main conclusion.

(B) The first is a false conclusion based on an incorrect premise; the second is the revised conclusion drawn from the corrected premise.

(C) The first is an opinion the author seeks to refute; the second is the opinion the author supports.

(D) The first is a prediction that, if accurate, would provide support for the main conclusion of the argument; the second is the main conclusion.

(E) The first is a generally held assumption; the second is a conclusion that violates that assumption.
